Frequently Asked Questions
Think back a moment. How and when did you first learn about sex? Who was it that gave you … 'The Talk'?
When this question is asked repeatedly, it becomes glaringly apparent that - while many people may have received a brief anatomy lesson on the physiology of reproduction - few - if any - have ever been schooled in the erotic arts of sexual intimacy and love play.
In fact, when it comes to the topics of love, sex, gender differences, and relationships – most people report receiving no guidance or instruction whatsoever.
Additionally, many relationships lack the meaningful sexual dialog necessary for partners to feel confident about expressing their sensual desires, preferences, and concerns.
Case in point - When was the last time you spoke honestly - with your partner - about how you long to be loved and touched or new forms of sexual pleasuring that you would like to explore? Recently? Rarely? Maybe never?
Lastly, "Cultural Wisdom" dictates that with age and familiarity, a couple's sexual energy and desire naturally wanes or disappears altogether. That sex appeal and charisma have a shelf life, and that's just the normal course of things.
And that's a choice … if you want to go with that.
A different perspective could include the fact that - sexual energy is life energy. While bodies change with age and sexual desire may fluctuate based on circumstances and conditions - human beings are innately sensual at any age – and charisma is timeless!

Experiencing fulfilling intimacy and sexual pleasure begins first and foremost with understanding your own body, wants, needs, desires and limitations.
Honestly, that depends on the nature of the relationship issue. What I have come to understand is most of my clients intimacy issues don't belong in a therapist's office.
And, many therapist do not have the training or the desire to address the topic of sexuality in their sessions. The exception to that statement being - sex therapists who have augmented their training with studies in human sexuality.
When working with a client - a good coach will know what is theirs to do - and when it is in the client's best interest to refer them out or work in tandem with a therapist.
